Colts Hold Their Value Better than Other Brands?

[ALCOAR]

I've got a question for the true Colt market experts.....

Assume both rifles are used, but in pristine condition. No boxes, accs., or paperwork. Just super clean rifles.

Which rifle will gain in value more, or will be more desirable in 20-25yrs.....

A Colt SP1 carbine or A Colt AR6520 ?

In my opinion, the SP1 Carbine. They already have a higher value than the AR6520. I would think that the AR6320 would give the SP1 carbine a run for the money as there was only 297 of them made.

Most excellent post brother, and you were one of the opinions I'd hope to hear back from. I love your collection, and especially your carbines in it. I can pretty much write off getting a 6320, but I'm currently trying to figure out if I should go ahead now, and grab the SP1 and then down the line hopefully pick up another 6520. Seems like that's the smart play.

Both will be pieces for my collection, rather than first line rifles....and I think for as little as I will be shooting it, the 1/12 won't matter. The stock and handguards on the SP1 carbine are so much cooler imho, and that is a big selling point for me at this point. If I was a billionaire I'd love to amass every Colt carbine ever produced...how awesome would that be
